Rogue behaviours of the despicable Americans would not work

Elon Musk is on a mission to unearth the worms and cockroaches. However, the worms and cockroaches, used to employing their usual dirty and filthy habits, will be going all out to demonise and put him out of operation. Compare the adulations just a couple of years ago, when they were so proud of his achievements. Now he is the enemy to be destroyed, and the MSM is on board with the worms and cockroaches, orchestrating this mission. Musk's comment about being non sucidal is a clear sign of the fight he is engaging in.

That is the mode of operation of the USA. When they can make use of a country or person, they extract all the advantage, and when those victims have outlived their usefulness and failed to tow the line, they first dragged them over the coals and will throw them under the tanks. Just like Afghanistan earlier, and NATO right now. And that is a sober message for the Taiwanese.

And that mode of operation applies to China. China has and will become the perpetual bogeyman, together with Russia, for whatever ills befall the USA, that erupted ever since Trump became the President. There were already signs much earlier though, but things were still less provocative, with China still providing cheap consumer manufactures and USA printing fiat money, both happily exchanging the goodies for toilet papers. A win win situation the USA failed to appreciate. The USA is going to lose it all.

When China started the AIIB and commenced recycling the accumulated US$ toilet papers through the BRI projects and used them to fund infrastructures projects all over the world, that really rattles the USA. What appears as fiat money in the hands of other smaller countries, is a good opportunity for China to leverage on it's ability to recycle massive amounts of the accumulated US$ to gain soft power influence all over the world. The USA could not put a stop to it and started to engage in foul play. Like fabricating the debt trap and all those rhetorics of China engaging in Imperialistic designs that they themselves did before. It failed to register among the aid receipients of those funds for infrastructure developments.

Trump, in his efforts to curb the US$ surpluses flowing into China to fund all the above projects, ignited the confrontation, starting with his trade war, and followed by the demonisation of Huawei's 5G inroads into the West. Both failed to curb China's accumulation of trade surpluses, not even during the two years of COVID, and dent China's foray into using the surpluses to fund infrastructure projects overseas. And equally, Huawei also did not collapse.

Now Biden is trying to strangle China with his Chip Alliance, and Chinese chip manufacturers all over China are pulling together by taking up the challenge to be self reliant. It is all hands to the pump, with even foreign chip talents returning from overseas to help China overcome the odds. As in all other endeavours that China had been prevented from even participating, China went alone to find it's own way and have suceeded beyond expectation. The result is all inspiring for China. And the chip business is going to be another feather in China's cap in a couple of years time.

China makes long term plans, and does not just look no further than its nose, and resort to desperate measures when things turn out otherwise. Nothing is done on the spur of the moment. Every move is calibrated and not plucked from the air, using whims and fancies of the moment.
